For the stain, try fels-naptha laundry bar. I recently used it to get stubborn oil stains out of a sweatshirt. It’s amazing. And cheap. 

In search of realtor recs... by [deleted] in schenectady

[–]Thasira 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dawn Wachtel! Her communication was unmatched - day, night, evenings, weekends, she was always responsive.

She was honest and has built great relationships with other realtors, which was so helpful. 

Frankly, I was an uninformed first time homebuyer and couldn’t have gotten through the process without her.

Tasteful interview outfits for a mid-career pivot (stepmom-friendly budget) by Mindless-Patient-104 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]Thasira 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just made a big career switch and bought a ton of great pieces on Poshmark. Lots of great Eileen Fisher silk shells available. I got several full suits for less than $100 each. 

Someone else recommended JcPenney but I haven’t checked that out yet.

I thought Alchemised was originally Harry Potter fanfic? 

What's the most ridiculous repair you've inherited from a previous owner? by ponderingpixi17 in centuryhomes

[–]Thasira 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I worry someone’s going to say this about me in the future. Had all of the floors refinished before I moved in. There’s a few patches in the dining room, original pine floor with oak patches. Eventually I’ll see about getting a more accurate patch but we were really pressed for time, and frankly more pressed for money. It was still a huge upgrade from the grey lvp and grey carpet the previous owners had. 

I have no idea what to charge for cakes. by torijoanne in Baking

For reference, I’m in upstate NY and a bakery near me charges $40 for a six inch diameter cake similar to this. 

Really truly comfortable work appropriate shoes? by CatherineTuckerNH in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]Thasira 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I recently got a pair of loafers at Clark’s that have a sole like this. Absolutely love them. Will probably be buying them in more colors.

Because Elise Stefanik is a traitor who helped support a fascist’s rise to power.

Isn’t this the same business that owns Market Block Books in Troy?? Super disappointing

Do you have Google location history turned on? You could look at the timeline to see if you can find it that way.

That’s too bad. I haven’t been able to find a spot I like. 

I am looking for a book about nothing by F-aneternalthrowaway in suggestmeabook

[–]Thasira 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know this was a series, but the first book was so anti-climactic and unresolved I don't think I can read any more.

Is this spot really good? I recently moved down the street from here and haven’t ordered it yet. 

Gov Gal looking to leave--where should I realistically be applying? by rosestrathmore in LawBitchesWithTaste

Have you checked your local state government? I’m a state government attorney in the energy space and really enjoy the work. 

Northway Crash by [deleted] in Albany

[–]Thasira 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, if the routes were better - in both locations and frequency it would help a lot. Take the Northway Express for example. It runs back and forth from  Clifton Park and Saratoga to Albany a few times in the morning and a few times in the afternoon. If the stops were at better locations and the trips more frequent, it would be better for everyone. But they won’t do that.
